Things That Are A Total No-No After A Breakup

Letting go of the love of your life is no joke. It takes tremendous courage to deal with the situation when the person you love is no more a part of your life. Breakups are tough and take a toll not only on your emotional health but also on your mental and physical well-being. We understand that this breakup phase is difficult but there are certain things that you must refrain from if you want to get over things and move ahead. Wedding Affair lists down things that are a total no-no after a breakup. 

1. Sulking In Bed

Sitting all day in bed and sulking is going to do no good. Neither it will bring your partner back to you nor patch up your broken relationship. It is going to affect you as you will spend your days overthinking all the things that went wrong and what could have been done right. Instead indulge in some activity to divert your mind. 

2. Stop Socializing

Many people stop going out and meeting people as they go through a breakup. They enter into a cocoon. At a time when you shouldn’t stay alone, you end up making yourself more miserable. Go out, meet new people and engage in good, healthy conversations. 

3. Binge Eating Or Starving

Extremes are always bad. Parting ways with your loved one takes a toll on your physical health as many people either stop eating or eat a lot to get away from the sadness. Such habits harm you in ways whose repercussions will be known later in life. 

4. Stalking Your Ex

After a breakup, people feel the need to know about their ex’s current life. What are they doing with there lives, who they are hanging out with, is there someone new they are seeing. All these questions will pop-up and the urge to find out will leave you stalking your ex on social media platforms. This habit is toxic and you need to stay away from it. 

5. Pretending Everything’s Ok

Breakup hurts and it takes time to get over things. But turning a blind eye to your emotions, pretending to be strong and that everything’s okay is not okay. It is good to put a happy face but you need to let yourself feel the pain. Until and unless you accept the hurt that you are going through, you won’t be able to change anything about it.

6. Start Dating Immediately

With memories of your past lurking around the corner, it wouldn’t be wise to start dating immediately after your breakup. You will always be searching for your ex in your current partner and that could end on a very bad note. 

7. Revisiting The Past 

Keeping their stuff, randomly looking at the gifts they gave you, watching the films that you saw together or listening to your song, basically revisiting the memories that you made together will not help you move on in life. You will keep hanging on to the memories of the past.

8. Don’t Blame Yourself 

The worst thing is to blame yourself for all the things that went wrong in your relationship. Self-guilt will lead you nowhere on your path to moving on in life. It is only going to make things worse.
